LS motors with larger cams will have some valvetrain noise, it's inevitable. If the lifters are in good shape and pushrod size has been correctly selected it should be kept to a minimum.

Would sound like a sewing maching while it was running. You can do a search on how to measure push rod lengths aswell. GL
